In the 1950s, the gangster movie and film noir crisscrossed to create gangster noir. Robert Miklitsch takes readers into this fascinating subgenre of films focused on crime syndicates, crooked cops, and capers. With the Senate's organised crime hearings and the brighter-than-bright myth of the American Dream as a backdrop, Miklitsch examines the style and history, and the production and cultural politics, of classic pictures from The Big Heat and The Asphalt Jungle to lesser-known gems like 711 Ocean Drive and post-Fifties movies like Ocean's Eleven. Miklitsch pays particular attention to trademark leitmotifs including the individual versus the collective, the family as a locus of dissension and rapport, the real-world roots of the heist picture, and the syndicate as an octopus with its tentacles deep into law enforcement, corporate America, and government.

De bekroonde onderzoeksjournalist Tom Burgis onthult in Kleptopia een angstaanjagend wereldwijd web van financiële criminaliteit. Hij volgt het geld dat de wereldeconomie overspoelt, dictators aanmoedigt en democratieën vergiftigt: van het Kremlin tot Beijing, en van het Midden-Oosten tot het Witte Huis. Burgis komt tot een sinistere conclusie: de criminelen verenigen zich.Door de jaren heen komt er soms een glimp van deze schimmige wereld naar boven: een lichaam in een uitgebrande Audi, arbeiders doorzeefd met kogels in de Kazachse woestijn, een vervalste verkiezing in Zimbabwe? Kleptopia biedt een schokkende inkijk in een wereld van corruptie, belastingontduiking, spionage, schimmige tussenfiguren en vooral machtswellust.Bron: www.standaardboekhandel.be
